This year I have decided to take a 10 day vacation and take care of me. That’s right I will make a list of things that I want to accomplish for myself and I will write my journal daily to keep you up-to-date on how I feel.
1. Join a gym and go at least 5 out of the 10 days.
2. Wake up and take a shower daily.
3. Wash my face daily properly.
4. Give myself a full pedicure and manicure.
5. Start a low fat/low carbohydrate diet.
6. Drink a liter of Puerh Tea.
7. Drink minimum 8 glasses of water.
8. This is the hard part; NO WINE & NO COFFEE.
This is going to be a challenge because I am so use to putting myself last. I am always so busy taking care of everyone that I have forgotten to spoil myself. The funny thing is that I could do this if I went away but I have a hard time fitting me into my schedule when I am at home. I guess this is something I am going to have to learn to do. Wish me luck!
About Me
- Cooking To Lose Weight
- Last year thanks to my husband’s “mid life” crisis I had to make a lot of changes in my life. One of those changes was “me”. After 20 years of marriage and two wonderful children I had to change “me”. I had to go and find myself. Today I can say that this has been the most exciting adventure of my life. I learned that I am strong and determined. I taught myself to revisit events with a different attitude. I opened my world in a way that I had never experienced. I asked questions, and became extremely resourceful. I made myself a promise that for one year I would not eat any desserts, chips or foods that had no benefits to me. I taught myself to come first. One of the things I had to do is lose weight! Like most of us, we get too comfortable in our relationships and before you know it the pounds creep up. You see I love to eat and I love to cook. The challenging part was getting the two to work with my lifestyle. I had to figure out a way to enjoy the both without the extra pounds Today, I have lost over 25 pounds and I ran a 10K marathon in one hour! How did I do this you ask? Cooking to lose weight changed my life. I hope I can change yours!
